    Every Six Hours

    Greg and Jennifer share how the launch of God Doesn't Hate Me After All connects directly to Rosary Army's mission, then open up about their Advent giving campaign, financial shortfalls, and why someone now asks them for a rosary every six hours. It's an honest conversation about trust, almsgiving, repentance, and helping the next generation discover the love of Jesus through the Rosary. • Video Version of This Episode 🙏🏻 DONATE TO THE 2026 GIVING CAMPAIGN FREE DOWNLOAD: Introduction and First Two Chapters of Greg's Book! 🙏🏻 BUY GREG'S NEW BOOK - God Doesn't Hate Me After All: Discovering Louis de Montfort's Love of Eternal Wisdom: • From Sophia Institute Press • From Amazon • From Barnes & Noble 🙏🏻 LINKS: • Video Version of This Episode 🙏🏻 FREE STUFF: • Free All-Twine-Knotted Rosaries • School of Mary • Audio Rosaries 🙏🏻 ROSARY ARMY CATHOLIC PODCAST: • SPOTIFY • APPLE PODCASTS 🙏🏻 MORE FROM GREG AND JENNIFER/ROSARY ARMY: • Rosary Army Mobile App • Greg's serialized novel 🙏🏻 CONTACT & SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS: feedback@rosaryarmy.com  🙏🏻 TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – "Apparently I'm a mystic now" (book launch update) 01:15 – Amazon reviews, bookstores, and surprise photos 03:01 – Interviews, radio, and late-night priest show 05:35 – Liturgical New Year and Advent resolutions 06:40 – 20 years of Rosary Army giving campaigns 09:09 – Fasting, almsgiving, and worthy fruits of penance 13:10 – Weakness, repentance, and God's mercy 17:16 – Three years of deficits and rising costs 19:04 – New pope, jubilee year, and growing OCIA interest 20:10 – Two branches of the mission: newcomers and long-timers 22:22 – Original mission: Make them.
